I had a similar feeling, but then I replayed the game opening and the feeling quickly went away. Not only did this "friend" do what is probably the most disckish move towards a buddy, but he felt zero remorse about it and played it off like it's no big deal. And let's not forget that the reason he has a harem in the first place is because the MC did all the heavy lifting for him, Naoki was just coasting on the MCs effort. Basically, he and Tokuko created a monster that will be the cause of their own destruction.I have to say I do feel bad (a bit) for the guy, of course he was a scumbag in the beginning taking everything even the only girl mc actually wanted after mc helped that idiot with the other girls, but the latest updates were real fucking cruel to him and him just being so pathetic is kinda sad. my empathic self just can't ignore that even though at the beginning I would have loved to just strangle him straight away. and dont get me wrong all the process of stealing and the game itself, as I said a couple of times already, I really like it. just saying that I do be feeling kind of bad for Naoki as we get into his final moments of getting broken completely. same way I felt bad for Emma getting bullied hard by mc even though, once again, she did deserve it. but I have to say I am pleased of how things turned out for Emma in current phase, I'd like to see every ending anyway (if there are options) but will be interesting to see how it plays out for Emma specifically, she was also the only one I didn't give points in the first 2/3 of the game only gave her the last one.
its still quite short compared to nowadays light novel names xdIs that a title or a thesis?
what do you mean "stretched too thin" and "dragged out"? thats like saying too hot and too cold?I had a similar feeling, but then I replayed the game opening and the feeling quickly went away.

In other news, the pacing is feeling kind of bad in the last several updates.Events feel like they are being stretched too thin and dragged out.
No, it's same thing, an X amount of content dragged out for too long, so the event itself is long but progress is thin. Or more precisely, the last couple updates felt like treading water.what do you mean "stretched too thin" and "dragged out"? thats like saying too hot and too cold?
Mhh.. is that so? I for one am quite happy with the pace. If anything Emas final corruption phase seemed a bit short to me.No, it's same thing, an X amount of content dragged out for too long, so the event itself is long but progress is thin.

We all are mind controled... just some pawns on the desk... who are the players...?my theory is that the "father" is the real mc, he'll appear in the last scene and explain he has been mind controling everyone so his "clone with fake memory" would suffer and see how he'd deal with it then he just watched over everything and laught ... then he'll release tokuko memory and she'll remember being one of the mastermind whose memory was sealed so she could live through those event as an "innocent bystander", then there'll be some behind the scene flashback of mc creation, of tokuko memory being sealed so she could witness the hell happening, of naoki being mindcontroled into being an ass and the girls "bullying" mc after being mind controled then a couple meme worthy scene of the "father" laughing his ass off as mc was preparing his evil master plan ^^ ... that's how i explain the inconsistency and why some event are slow and others rushed, this was never the real story, it's the story being writen by two mad scientists inside a story, logic never had anything to do with it ^^
Muhaha. We were just thinking we were in control of everything, but it has always been Naoki all along!!We all are mind controled... just some pawns on the desk... who are the players...?
